Guest guest Posted January 31, 2002 Report Share Posted January 31, 2002 >When I saw on the net (Goravani site) your lessons and instructions in Jyotish - I fell on my knees. It was so meaningfull, so deep, so nourishing..." All credits go to Krishna, Bhagavad Gita, Bhagavatam, Sri Caitanya, and all the devotees who have labored to preserve and protect the knowledge divine throughout the ages so that it can reach the likes of me or us. And in Sastra, Bhagavatam, we hear Queen Kunti, the mother of the Pandavas, one of the "Panca Jani" or 5 great woman of Indian history say: "Lord, while most pray for relief, I ask you to send me suffering, for when I suffer, I remember you more clearly, which is my real pleasure" Something like that... It takes a woman to say the truth. See! And again: Most of the big teachers on this list and throughout the real world of spirit have all suffered or performed austerity to great degrees. Something to note. In the HK movement, we used to rise at 3:30 and intentionally take a cold shower. Even in ice water outside at the farms. Trippy. Ice cold bathing under the stars. Imagine grown men almost naked in the dark yelling "hare krishna" with alot of SHIVER in their voices. As they repeat it over and over as if it's saving them from the icey cold water from under the layer of ice we broke off to get to it. Makes the cold temple room you're in a few minutes later seem toasty warm. Saves on the heating bill. Anything for Krishna! Cult? Na. Genious!
